Departure
Arrival
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the Beechcraft Duke taking off in a relatively short distance of 208 meters, which accounted for 11% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 86 knots, and the aircraft was able to achieve this speed quickly, taking off smoothly.
As the aircraft entered the local airspace, it encountered a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 170 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, and the headwind component was also 1 knot. These conditions allowed for a relatively straightforward left-hand pattern entry from runway 21, with the aircraft completing this maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in just 22 seconds.
The left-hand pattern crosswind was also completed quickly, taking the aircraft less than 1 nautical mile to complete in 16 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was a bit longer, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile, and the aircraft turned at an angle of 116.9 degrees to the runway.
As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 30, it was heading southeast at 300 degrees and was at an altitude of 31.7 meters above ground level. The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 64 knots and a touchdown distance of 303 meters, which was a good 23% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -0.7 meters per second.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also smooth, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a straight line. The total landing distance was 622 meters, which was a good indication of the aircraft's performance in the given conditions.
The flight was relatively short, covering a total distance of 2 nautical miles, and took just 3 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which was a relatively small amount considering the distance traveled. Overall, the flight was a smooth and successful one, with the Beechcraft Duke performing well in the given conditions.
